Who is Cheryl Ladd?

Cheryl Ladd was born on the 12th July 1951 in Huron, South Dakota, USA. She is a singer, author and actress, perhaps best known for her role as Kris Munroe in the 1970s television series Charlie's Angels. She was known as Cherie Moor when she performed on the album based on Hanna-Barbera's Josie and the Pussycats animated series. In 1977 (starting from the second season), Ladd (as she was now known) replaced Farrah Fawcett in Charlie's Angels, and stayed until the end of the show in 1981. She also starred in the 1994–1996 series One West Waikiki. In January 1980, Ladd sang the national anthem prior to Superbowl XIV. In 1996, she released a children's book, The Adventures of Little Nettie Windship, following it up in 2005 with Token Chick: A Woman’s Guide To Golfing With The Boys, an autobiographical book which focused on her love of golf. In September 2000, she took over the role of Annie Oakley from Bernadette Peters on Broadway in the revival of Annie Get Your Gun. She played the role until January 2001, when Reba McEntire took over. Since 2003, Ladd has played the lead character's wife, Jillian Deline, in the television drama Las Vegas.
